High Salary SF

LeBron James, CLE vs TOR ($12,800): The Raptors have a tough defense, but they’re on a back-to-back and got more than they bargained for against the Magic on Tuesday. James has been over 68 fantasy points in four straight and is coming off a 72.4 fantasy point performance against the Bucks on Monday. He’ll get you at least 50 fantasy points and given his recent play, there’s a good enough he’s over 60 fantasy points once again. He takes up a lot of cap space, but he’s the best player in the league for a reason. *****

Giannis Antetokounmpo, MIL vs LAC ($12,000): The Clippers are 30th against the position in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. Antetokounmpo had 58.7 fantasy points against the Cavaliers on Monday, putting himself over value in a third straight game. He’ll need a big game once again if the Bucks continue to fail to play defense. He should give you at least 50 fantasy points without too much trouble. ****

Otto Porter Jr., WAS at SA ($7,300): Porter Jr. has missed value in five os his last six. He needs 31.6 fantasy points to reach value on Wednesday. The Spurs are 15th against the position in their last 15 games. His numbers are down across the board in recent contests, but it’s his lack of scoring that has really hurt his value. It won’t be easy to score against the Spurs, even without Kawhi Leonard. He has the ability to post a big game and maybe the rest will do him some good. But he’s a risk on Wednesday. **
